Hey Todd --

I was referring to something a bit more contemporary than "The Silent Scream" -- but I understand that to even suggest that the fetus is human is to be so utterly rightwing and anti-woman that it is beyond the pale of "progressive" discourse, and a spit in the face of "choice." Euphemism is the preferred option, I know, and you are more than welcome to it.

Fetus = Polyp

Civilian Casualties = Collateral Damage

Shell Shock = Combat Stress Disorder

And so on.
